It was about re-potting Phalaenopsis, which most of mine are. I took several pages of notes and came home to repot all of mine that were not blooming.

This month the class was on mounting Tillandsia (air plants). This was a hands on class and we had a huge choice of plants and things on which to mount our choices. I chose 3 interesting Tillandsia and a long piece of cork bark with a hanger already attached. Using a silicone glue and twist ties we created our displays and went home to display our creations.

So now I am hooked on this unusual way to show plants. I have some shells I want to fill and some little pots. He assured me that if I am careful, the displays should transport back and forth to Michigan from Florida just fine. The main thing he cautioned against was OVER care. Spritz twice a week, only.
